What does a paid subscription get you? In depth discussion of how stories and memoir get made, super-fast writing experiments, books (fiction, memoir, poems) worth your time, a study of writers who started late. I don’t mean you have to be old. I mean other stuff got in the way of the story you’re dying to tell. I love helping others—and I do loads of research and study for each paid lesson: How creativity works, how to figure out the difference between invention and the study of craft.
I love guest posts. These are always free. You might wanna know me better to do one: I’ll help promote you if you’re on Substack or anywhere: Do you blog? Do you have a podcast? Do you paint and want to show your work? Do you scribble poems or anecdotes? You’ve come to the right place.
Build on what I’m doing—we can help each other.
Important note: If you truly can’t afford to pay me 20% off $50 for a year and then forever, write me at marytabor@substack.com. (FYI, Substack has been using Stripe to charge your credit card, though I’ve also seen Apple Pay and a pull-down menu for a direct credit card entry on one Substack site.)
My mantra: “Only connect …” E.M. Forster’s epigraph to Howards End.
I also teach one-on-one an even more in-depth approach via Zoom and tailored to your special needs. Any questions? Drop me a note at marytabor@substack.com
If you’re already a paid subscriber for this year, could you share this note? You’ll be in my heart for helping.
I’ll love you whether you go paid or not: I get it!
Love (and so hoping this email doesn’t annoy),
